Second, this would have made Christ a blemished lamb, unworthy of being sacrificed for us. Sin is imputed. In other words, he was our substitute as the example of the lambs and goats in the OT. The above explanation is better, though I&#39;m not sure that it could be argued that Jesus took our sin nature. He took human nature, which is not inherently sinful. He was the second Adam and as the first Adam became with no sin nature, so did the second Adam.<br />Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02618204172467905671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-61103981652396905662011-04-20T22:18:20.096-05:002011-04-20T22:18:20.096-05:00This is probably very bad Greek, exegesis, and the...This is probably very bad Greek, exegesis, and theology all cobbled together, and my seminary professors might slap my wrist, but...I&#39;ve always thought if he who knew no sin, Christ, literally <i>became sin</i> (not just &quot;took on our sins,&quot; but actually <i>became sin,</i>) then when He was put to death, <i>sin itself</i> was put to death.
